Daily Trainer: Thursday, Week 1

You've always wanted to get in the best possible shape, but you've just been waiting for someone to help you make that first step and keep you moving down the right path. Well now you've got it with your own Daily Personal Trainer on Bodybuilding.com!

Thursday, Week 1: Nutrition
Grocery Shopping!

Thursday, Week 1: Cardio:

Remember, you need 10-15 minutes of intense cardio today. Not so hard that you are unable to talk. Make it a power-walk, not a run.

Grocery Shopping:

Now before you go shopping be sure to eat a meal. You don't want to be at the store on an empty stomach and be tempted by something unhealthy.

Perimeter Shopping:

Generally the healthier items are kept around the outside of supermarket. Processed foods like tv dinners and mac-and-cheese are found in the center. Processed foods tend to be full of toxins that your body won't recognize and won't burn off. So stay to the perimeter. There's virtually no reason to be in the center of the store.
